Piotessor B. examined a cla-s in Nat ural Philosophy that stood a good ex amination. Pruti si .or Guinn carried his class m Geometry through a sitting and thor ough course in that branch ot mathe matics. The you.ig ladies answered the questions asked, promptly and pointedly. They also demonstrated several theorems and tlie best feature of the demonstra tions were that the young ladies used the initials ot their sweethearts’ name to describe the angels. We imagine it wouid be very hard to get the angles i equal to each other, when lettered in that way ; but, some how or ot her the square described on the hyputhenuse ot | the right-angled tri-angle D. O. L. was i equivalent to tlie sum oi the squares desc ibed on the other two sides. The 1 angles D. C. L. and R. L. C. were and are equal to each other. Miss Morels classes in French and dictation were then examined and passed a ciediiable review. The exercises wound up with some funny and witty little speeches by the little hoys and girls. Professor B. is an excellent disciplina*’ ian, as well as a splendid instructor; and the advancement his pupils are ma-j king show that he and h s able corps of I sasislance are doing good service in the j Conyers Female College.
